Im having issues with a network ive set up between two PC's, the host pc connects to the net Via a USB DSL modem and the client connects via an etherenet cable.
The hosts net connection is shared and the hosts network connections TCP/IP properties are set to the following -
IP address - 192.168.0.1
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
the DNS's and default gateway is left blank.
the Clients TCP/IP settings are set to the following -
IP address - 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
Default gateway - 192.168.0.1
DNS1 - 192.168.0.1
DNS2 - Blank
I had it successfuly set as the above for weeks and everything was fine, Just today I changed the TCP/IP settings on my client PC so I could FTP to my Xbox, after I changed them back, I was able to connect to the net for a while and then suddenly the net on my client PC stoped working. I tried all sorts from running the network setup wizard again to changing TCP/IP settings.
Currently the only way I can connect to the net is by having the Hosts PC settings as above and having clients TCP/IP settings to automatic, and even then I can connect to the net on the client PC for 5 minutes and then it stops.
Heres a SS of the ipconfig /all of the client PC -
Even though now as I ping the host PC I can connect to the internet the ping fails.
What does the lease obtained/lease expires on the ipconfig mean.
Thanks in advance
